📚 Developing Your Own Mods

Loading custom mods is disabled in stable branch and is under development.

The wiki will teach you the basics of working with steam files and more.

Once you get comfortable with the tools you can use Minify to patch them quickly.

Name	Description
Files	Compiled files you want to pack (Models, Meshes, Textures...etc)
blacklist.txt	Paths to files to replace with blanks so they wont appear in game (Particles, Sounds...etc)
styling.txt	Custom CSS you want to apply to the Panorama (Interfaces, Layouts, HUD's...etc)
